Description:

Published 1892-9, this four-volume collection contains translated Spanish documents relating to England during the reign of Elizabeth I.

Synopsis:

Published in four volumes between 1892 and 1899, this collection contains assorted papers and correspondence between Spain and Spanish dignitaries in England from the accession of Elizabeth I in 1558 through to her death in 1603. Revealing the changing relationship between Spain and England, the documents offer detailed insights into Elizabeth's reign from a continental and Catholic perspective. They have been carefully edited and translated into English by Martin Andrew Sharp Hume (1843-1910), a respected historian of Spain and a scrupulous archival researcher. Each volume is arranged chronologically, contains an introduction that provides helpful historical context and closes with an index that includes both letter writers and recipients. Volume 4 (1899) covers the final years of Elizabeth's reign (1587-1603). Though lacking the completeness of the correspondence in previous volumes - due to the diplomatic breakdown between Spain and England - this volume nevertheless contains much valuable and previously untapped material.
